Appalachian State (6-2) vs. Texas State (3-6) Game Preview

What’s Going To Happen

Get through this, beat Georgia State, and if Georgia Southern losses, Appalachian State has a shot against Troy to take the Sun Belt East title.

The Mountaineers bounced back from the loss to Georgia Southern to beat Coastal Carolina to get going again. The defense stepped up its game, and now it has to shut down a Texas State offense that’s risen up ver the last two weeks.

All of a sudden, the Bobcats have gotten things going with two straight wins after starting the season 1-6. Now that get to play spoiler, with Troy and Arkansas State coming up after this.

Last in the Sun Belt in third down conversion, TXST will have a hard time getting things going against an ASU defense that doesn’t let anyone move the chains.

The Bobcats are able to come up with takeaways and they should be able to come up with a few to stay alive, but the offense that ran well against New Mexico State and threw better against Georgia State is going to hit a wall against the ASU D.

The Mountaineer offense isn’t going to go off, but QB Zac Thomas is fine, and he should be able consistent enough keep control of the clock throughout.
